Trumped at the Mardi Gras: Look-alikes turn out for New Orleans festival

John Shreves, centre, of New Orleans, meets Jeff Jones, right, who both dressed as US President Donald Trump during the Society de Sainte Anne parade on Mardi Gras day in New Orleans on Tuesday. Mr Trump said yesterday he is “totally opposed to domestic violence of any kind” after a former aide was accused of abusing his ex-wives. The White House sought to play down the controversy surrounding Rob Porter, who resigned last week after the allegations emerged. “I’m totally opposed to domestic violence of any kind. Everyone knows that,” Mr Trump told reporters at the White House.
